1cat eats 1 rat in 6 minutes ( not 1 cat per 1 rat per 1 min)

if 1cat eats 1 rat in 6 min, how many rats would it eat at 50 min.

50/6

if 1 cat eats 50/6 rats in 50 minutes, how many cats will eat 100 rats in 50 minutes > 100/ (50/6) > 100x (6/50) > 600/50 > 12

12 cats

6 cats eat 6 rats in 6 minutes, so that 1 cat per rat per minute. so if you have 100 rats and only have half the time to do it in you need double the cats, so you need 200 cats to eat 100 rats in 50 minutes

Domestic cats don't eat rats. Rats are far to large and evasive to be caught by a domestic cat.

Your question is in the wrong category.

If 1 cat eats 1 rat/6 mns, then 1 cat eats 100 rats in 600mns, but you only have 50 mns, so 600/50 = 12 cats.
